Hello! What’s going on in your lil world? I’m over here running and eating and repeating. You know, the usual.
For some reason Vegas is all about me today. First he creeped on me around the corner when I was brushing my teeth this morning…
Then, I was being super productive responding to email and updating social media scrolling through instagram while sitting on the couch with my elbows on my knees (because I’m too lazy to even sit up at this point) when Vegas came and decided to ‘claim this land in the name of England’. It’s a little game he plays where he climbs on top of me like he owns the joint.
As if living my life as a cat condo isn’t bad enough, someone in my life thinks french fries and vanilla shakes are a good snack choice?!
No.
We all know it’s all about french fries and strawberry shakes. Get it right next time.
For dinner I made super quick and easy tacos. I just cook up ground turkey (the only meat I know how to cook) and throw it on a couple corn tortillas and call it a day. I make this all the time because I always have tortillas at home, I just switch it up with beans or whatever other randomness I can use as filling… refried beans, rotisserie chicken, peanut butter, mushrooms, chocolate chips… whatever you got. Make it work.
And now let’s talk about Pile on the Miles!
How is week one going? Are you close to hitting your goal for this week? You only have a few more days. Get to it!
I took a 3 mile walk this afternoon while listening to my latest favorite podcast. I feel like I’m walking with a friend listening to podcasts – is that weird?

Today was my “off” day- I just started a new graduate class to move up the payscale at my job, so sitting in a classroom for 4 hours after a day at work meant no time for a run! I still got in my 10,000 steps though!

I was planning on a 3 mile run today, but it came a random thunderstorm and heavy rain, so I walked the halls for almost 30 minutes on my break at work today. It is starting to let up a little, and if I’m able to get outside later, I will go for a run.

Today I did 21 day fix pilates. I wanted to run too but the husband had to leave super early for work and did not let me know this until this morning! grrrrr…..

I’m doing pretty well on Week 1! I think I put down 10 miles for this week, but I will probably be running more. Today I ran 4 miles after my strength workout, so that brings me to 11 miles total! I really want to reach my month-long goal and so that probably means I need to run a little more this week than I originally thought I would.

Stephanie says
Today is a yoga day. I have been holding off on the runs due to back pain, but I am hoping tomorrow a little run may be possible!

It’s raining (which is a good thing, since we need it), so I didn’t walk this morning as planned. This may be a rest day!
Laurel @blondeandabrit.com says
I did a vintage Tae Bo Cardio workout this morning. I’m considering working out before my flight tomorrow but even if I don’t I’ll meet my goal because I wanted to get in 5 workouts a week and Saturday I’ve got bootcamp with Pbfingers!!

Needed rest day today. Working this afternoon, then catch up on homework tonight. I’ve got half my goal of pilates or yoga 4 days this week. I will most likely do some yoga tonight b/c my hips feel tight.
